A week of holiday tournaments shook up the rankings a bit in men's hoops, but those changes don't start at the top.

It still isn't quite unanimous, but Michigan State easily retained the No.1 ranking in the new USA TODAY Sports coaches poll. The Spartans, who won their lone contest of the week in convincing fashion, were voted first on 31 of 32 ballots.

The rest of the top five looks a bit different, but it still features plenty of Wildcats. Arizona climbed to the No.2 spot and picked up the remaining first-place vote on the strength of its title in the NIT Season Tip-off, concluding with a victory against Duke in the title game. The Blue Devils slid three places to No.8.

Ohio State jumped three places to No.3, leapfrogging Kentucky which stayed put at No.4. Maui Invitational champion Syracuse moved up to fifth, just a single poll point behind UK Wildcats.

Stock up: Memphis.

The Tigers are back on the rise after winning their rematch with Oklahoma State, Their gain this week was four positions, into a tie for 15th with Gonzaga.

Stock down: Kansas.

The Jayhawks fell victim to yet another set of Wildcats in the Battle for Atlantis in the Bahamas. Though they rebounded to win the third-place game, the Jayhawks nevertheless tumbled five positions to No.7. Tournament champion Villanova, meanwhile, made their top-25 season debut at No.19.

Stock up: UCLA.

The voters seemed to be taking a wait-and-see approach with the Bruins under new management. But it's so far so good for first-year coach Steve Alford as UCLA improved to 7-0 and moved up four places to No.17.

Stock down: North Carolina.

The Tar Heels' up-and-down November concluded on a down note with a loss to unranked UAB. They held on to a top-25 spot barely, but their nine-position drop was the largest within the poll this week.

Stock up: Iowa State.

The Cyclones' upward mobility continued. After entering the rankings a week ago, they matched the biggest move of the week gaining four spots to No.18.

Stock down: Gonzaga.

Maui wasn't quite as good to the Zags, who took a five-place fall into the tie for 15th after picking up their first loss of the campaign.
